My 1yr old corn has moved up to smalls and the change in his eating has completely altered. He has always eaten with no trouble but he just used to take fuzzies slowly and gently eat them. He has now had 3 smalls and each time has realy savaged them and i was wondering if this was because he sees them as more of a threat to him?

Exactly the same here. I just gave Percy her second small tonight and this and the last was the first time she has actually struck at the mouse and seemed to have a good time 'waving' it about lol.

Better to limit the number of food items to 2 or move up to 1 of the next size up.
Multiple small items can cause regurge problems.
